My younger brother is a businessman. In the past, he ate all kinds of raw seafood, unknowingly, and retribution came. He developed psoriasis around 39. He did not have a single piece of intact skin all over his body, making him suffer a lot. He has been to all the major hospitals and used many prescriptions, and spent nearly one million CNY (~$145K US), but his condition is getting serious and deteriorating. Despite my repeated recommendations for him to practice Buddhism, my sister-in-law (wife of my younger brother) has repeatedly refused to do so. She always thought I advocated superstition, and even more disdainfully said: “If everyone gets well after reciting Buddhist scriptures, why do we need the hospital?” In this way, she kept me out again and again.
In 2019, I visited my mother who lives with my younger brother. My mother was 82 years old and believed in Buddhism and recited Buddhist scriptures. She cried and said to me, “Just help your younger brother recite the Little Houses. He now has ulcerated psoriasis wounds all over his body and cannot wear clothes. Even the doctors turn him back and can’t treat him.” I replied, “One must pay one’s own debts. Those who eat food and those who are full. If he is willing to practice Buddhism and recite Buddhist scriptures, I will definitely help him. If he doesn’t recite Buddhist scriptures, I can’t help him.”
Then, I headed to my younger brother’s home. Looking at his bloody wounds, my heart ached and I implored him to recite Buddhist scriptures. I said to him, “Skin diseases are also karmic diseases. Now that the doctors have rebuffed you, the only way to save you is Buddhism. This is the last straw. You listen to your elder sister. Try it first. If reciting Buddhist scriptures for 3 weeks does not work, do not recite. With no other choice, he agreed to try.
After returning home, I prayed to Guan Yin Bodhisattva to save my younger brother and to show my sister-in-law that our Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door is true. Since my brother promised to recite Buddhist scriptures, I helped his karmic creditors with 21 Little Houses. Two weeks later, I visited my younger brother again. He could already put on his clothes. He also showed me that his wounds were gradually healing. The psoriasis receded. It was a miracle I did not expect!
After that, his skin condition got better and better. On the day of his housewarming, relatives and friends congratulated him. They were surprised to see him dressed in short clothes and pants. He has not worn short clothes and pants for many years because of psoriasis. “Why are you wearing short clothes and pants today? “Everyone asked him where he got his psoriasis cured, and how it was cured. Both my mother and my younger brother answered that they thanked me for awakening him to practice Buddhism and recite Buddhist scriptures, so that he could be reborn. My younger brother’s Dharma presentation has caused my relatives to believe in Buddhism and add me to their WeChat one after another. They followed me to practice Buddhism. It was really Dharma joyous!
My family, my mother’s family, my husband’s family, and my neighbors, as long as they know me, nearly all of them practice Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door. In a dream, Master Lu took me to Guan Yin Citta Pure Land (On the east side of the Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss is Guan Yin Citta Pure Land). Master Lu told me that He was waiting for us in Guan Yin Citta Pure Land. We all are children of Guan Yin Bodhisattva, and we all are children of Master Lu. Together, let’s make this marvelous Dharma bloom everywhere.
My deepest gratitude to Namo Sakyamuni Buddha!
My deepest gratitude to the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva!
My deepest gratitude to all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas from ten directions and three periods of time!
My deepest gratitude to the Dharma protectors!
My deepest gratitude to the selfless and beloved Master Jun Hong Lu!
If there is anything that is not rational or in line with the truth in the presentation, I’d like to seek forgiveness from the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva, all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, Dharma protectors, and Master Jun Hong Lu. I’d also like to seek forgiveness from my fellow Buddhist practitioners.
I, not my fellow practitioners, will be responsible for my own karma!

劝导弟弟学佛念经，治好了他近20年的牛皮癣
感恩南无释迦牟尼佛！
感恩南无大慈大悲救苦救难广大灵感观世音菩萨摩诃萨！
感恩十方三世一切诸佛菩萨及龙天护法金刚菩萨！
感恩弘法度众舍身忘我的恩师慈父LJH台长！
我的弟弟是个生意人。以前，生猛海鲜他样样吃，不知不觉报应来了。大约39岁那年，他患上了牛皮癣。他浑身上下没有一块完整的皮肤，让他痛苦不堪。他看遍了各大医院，也用过很多偏方，化费了近100多万人民币，病情却越来越严重。我曾多次劝他学佛念经，但是弟弟和弟媳都不相信。弟媳总以为我在宣传迷信，更是不屑地说：”如果大家念经后身体会好，那还要医院干吗？“就这样，她一次次把我挡在门外。
2019年，我去看望我母亲。母亲80多岁了，也信佛念经。她哭着对我说：“你就帮帮你兄弟念念经文组合吧。他现在全身牛皮癣伤口溃烂，无法穿衣服。连医生都回绝他，无法帮他治疗。”我说：“自己的债一定要自己还，各人吃饭各人饱。他如果愿意学佛念经，我一定会帮他。他如果不念经，我也帮不了他。”
于是，我再次去弟弟家。看着弟弟血淋淋的伤口，我的心很痛，再一次恳请他念经。我对弟弟说，皮肤病也是业障病。现在医生也回绝你了，能救你的唯一方法就是学佛念经。这是最后一根救命稻草。你听姐姐的，先试试看。如果念经3个星期没有效果，你就不要念了。在万般无奈的情况下，弟弟答应学佛念经了。
回到家，我上香的时候祈求观世音菩萨能够救救我的弟弟，也要让弟媳看看我们的法门真实不虚。因为弟弟答应念经了，所以我助缘了21张经文组合给他的要经者。没想到，真的出现了奇迹！两个星期后，我再次去弟弟家拜访。他已经能穿上衣服了。他还给我看，他的伤口也渐渐愈合了。牛皮癣也退了好多。
之后，弟弟的皮肤病越来越向好的方向发展。在他乔迁之喜的日子里，亲戚朋友都来贺喜。他们看到我弟弟穿起了短衣、短裤，都觉得很惊讶。弟弟因为牛皮癣的缘故，多年没有穿过短衣、短裤了。”怎么今天穿起短衣短裤了？“大家都在询问他的牛皮癣在哪里治好的？怎么治好的？母亲和弟弟都说，感谢姐姐度化我学佛念经，让我得以重生。弟弟的现身说法，使亲戚们都加我微信，跟我一起学佛念经了。真是太法喜了！
如今，我们家，我娘家，我婆家，我邻居，只要认识我的基本上都在修我们法门。曾经，梦里师父带我参观心灵净土（斗战胜佛开示：“西方极乐世界东面靠左一点是心灵净土，是将来修成正果的众弟子往生居住的世界，观音村道场也在心灵净土。”）。师父开示说，师父在天上等着我们。
我们都是菩萨的孩子，我们也是师父的孩子，让我们携起手来，让这么好的佛法遍地开花。
再次感恩南无释迦牟尼佛，感恩南无大慈大悲救苦救难广大灵感观世音菩萨摩诃萨，感恩十方三世一切诸佛菩萨及龙天护法金刚菩萨！感恩弘法度众舍身忘我的恩师慈父LJH台长！
有不如理不如法之处，祈请南无大慈大悲观世音菩萨慈悲原谅！请十方三世诸佛菩萨和龙天护法菩萨慈悲原谅！请师兄们批评指正！我自己的业自己背，不让师兄们背！
